If the existing boiler is being replaced, a chemical cleaner is added to the system and flushed out

The existing boiler and all tanks and cylinders are disconnected and removed

New boiler is fitted in the chosen location and reconnected to all supply services

If a complete central heating system is being installed, radiators, complete with new valves, are fitted in the agreed locations and are connected to the central heating boiler using a combination of 15mm and 22mm copper pipe

Where appropriate a new gas supply is extended from the gas meter

If new valves are being fitted, this will be done while the system is being drained

The central heating system is refilled

An inhibitor agent is added to the circuit to prevent a build up contamination and debris

The central heating boiler is commissioned to ensure correct operation

The radiators are checked for performance and leaks on the pipe joints and valves

Where necessary the system is ‘balanced’ ensuring an even performance across the central heating system
